Nice. I`ve already said this yesterday

They seem to be updating security on 1.4 now

Could be a sign that 1.6 isnt way off.

im a tad confused the first link has a text file named patches. Is that all 1.4.7 users need to do ? or do we need to download the 1.4.8 changed files zip and run the update script as well ?

You can either do the patches yourself then run the upgrade script or you can use the changed files and then run the upgrade script

Just upgraded MyBBSource...let me know if you find any issues.

WoW Nickam you`re very fast

thanks mate! no features added?

Only bugfixes

All the new features will be in 1.6

I haven`t upgraded my forums ...
Since I lost all plugin configuration I can`t because I have more than 100 active plugins :(
